Chapter 90 90: Cage
After lunch absentmindedly, my companions discussed countermeasures one by one, but most of them were full of radical atmosphere. After eating, we sat in the restaurant and discussed for more than half an hour. , and did not come up with a milder solution.
"Let's get here first today. Thank you all for your hard work." Inukai glanced at the time and everyone's slightly troubled expressions.
The sunlight at the end of August is still harsh, and it is even worse at noon and afternoon, so their expected activity time is only one morning. Even if Ueno Zoo does not use that method to deal with them, they will probably stay longer. After a while, we had a meal and went back to our homes.
Farewell to everyone, Quan Yang returned to the apartment, carefully checked that there was no sign that the door had been opened, and then slowly opened the door while holding his breath.
Inside the house, there were still familiar furnishings, and the messy cat teaser was still in its place.
"Xiao Tao! Don't go in yet!"
Seeing Xiao Tao running in impatiently, Quan Yang also hurriedly followed, holding an electric mosquito swatter bought at a convenience store in his hand. As a self-defense weapon it's better than nothing.
I didn’t dare to close the door so that I could escape later. Then I walked straight into the house and turned it over to make sure that no one was in any hiding place.
He even climbed over the toilet water tank. There is no reason for such a big and strong man to hide in a place where he can't find him if he is still in the house.
"What the hell is going on?" Inukai closed the door, slowly walked to where the strong man was standing at that time, and looked directly out of the window.
The apartment he lives in is different from ordinary low-rise apartments. It is a tower apartment. It is more than 20 stories high enough to take in a large city view. At night, the lights are on, the neon lights are shining, and the traffic is endless. , a prosperous urban scene.
"Xiao Tao. Will there ever be a world where humans and animals live in harmony?"
"Yes, I don't think so, but what if?"
"After all, mom and dad have devoted their entire lives to this."
"I have to inherit their legacy."
In the afternoon, Inukai checked out of the hotel, went home and slept until evening, then drove to the supermarket to buy discounted lunch boxes to give to the homeless. .
I thought about eating a bento to deal with it, but somehow I remembered Ogata's words, and subconsciously bought some ingredients, planning to go back and cook them myself.
But standing in the kitchen, he looked at the large number of almost brand-new kitchen utensils in the kitchen. He unconsciously began to breathe quickly, his hands and feet were shaking, and it was very difficult to cook a fried hamburger.
After taking a bite of the hamburger meat with an indescribable taste, Inukai sighed.
"I really don't have any talent for cooking."
From now on, I'll just eat my lunch.
Although it tasted very bad, he still finished it. The food should not be wasted, otherwise he would feel very uncomfortable. Xiao Tao didn't like it either. Even if it was an empty box, Xiao Tao would dig through the trash can, as if he was checking whether he had any Waste of food.
"Get married? Xiao Tao, I'm afraid that after getting married, I won't be able to fulfill my responsibility as a husband."
"Nile? I checked the public information of Ueno Zoo and it is still alive. ”
"Yeah, long time no see."
Inukai stood up from the sofa and hesitated for a while.
"Let's just take a look outside, yes, just take a look outside."
As he said to himself, he picked up the key and went out.
Driving the car, we came to a shopping mall near Ueno Zoo and found a place to park. The zoo was closed at this time. If you get close, you can still hear a few sounds from unknown animals from time to time.
Inukai just walked around the zoo.
But found nothing.
After going around in circles for more than an hour, he finally gave up.
This is a prison that neither he nor the animals can overcome.
Like
"You really want to go in?"
The voice from behind almost scared Inukai into cardiac arrest.
He slowly looked back, and finally saw the strong man like an iron tower.
"Who are you?" Inukai sighed deeply and asked a little desperately.
Inexplicably, there is a person in his life who can't tell whether he exists in reality or in his fantasy, which makes him feel that he is about to have a schizophrenia.
"You can accept a little peach, why can't you accept one more person?" the strong man said.
"It's different. I know Xiaotao is an illusion, it's my subconscious. However, I can't tell where you are, and there is no place for you in my mind." Quan Yang looked at him slightly weakly , said slowly. The strong man nodded thoughtfully: "As far as mental illness is concerned, your thinking is very clear."
". Although I said Xiao Tao was an illusion, who can tell clearly, Is Xiaotao really in a certain space, always accompanying me? I can see Xiaotao, which is the resonance between my brain and Xiaotao's existence. "Inuyang shook his head, "So, who are you?"
< br>"Do you want to go in?" The strong man answered the question inappropriately.
Inukai opened his mouth slightly and glanced at the wall behind him: "There are a lot of surveillance cameras inside. Even if you throw me in, I will alert them."
"Then do you want to go in?"
Quanyang was silent for a few seconds and nodded: "I want to."
As soon as he finished speaking, the strong man grabbed his arm. Quanyang felt that the world was spinning, and his eyes blurred. He had already entered. Zoo area.
And it’s still in the chimpanzee exhibition area.
"You - this! How did you do this?!" Inuyang lowered his excited voice and looked around.
Yes, although it has changed a lot, this is the chimpanzee exhibition area where he often came.
It’s just that now at night, the chimpanzees are all locked up in the rest area, so it seems dead quiet.
Pinched himself, it hurt, he was sober, and he was sure it was not a dream, but he didn't know if it was a schizophrenia attack, but mental illness shouldn't violate the laws of physics, right?
"So...you are extraordinary?" Inukai could only come to this conclusion.
The strong man didn't answer, but pulled his arm again, blinked, and entered the rest area.
The chimpanzees were kept alone in a small space, sleeping or plucking their hair. Some even if they stayed for a long time, they would shake the iron door every day and try to get out.
Inukai looked at it dreamily and shed tears unconsciously.
A certain dead memory, try to revive it.
But he was quickly pressed by his subconscious mind.
Can't think back, can't think back.
"Do you think they belong here?" the strong man asked.
Inukai shook his head, this is a question that can be answered without thinking.
“They should belong to the wilderness, but they are trapped in the cage of this city. Even humans themselves are trapped in this prison called the city. The wilderness is the destination of all living things. According to your approach, people will never feel afraid, and animals will continue to be exhibited, deprived of their nature, and forcibly given the so-called meaning of survival."
The strong man said a lot in one breath, and then touched. I got the key from nowhere, walked to one of the "rooms", and opened the door.
Inukai followed slowly and walked over. Through the gap in the iron fence, he saw the huge chimpanzee in the lounge. The familiar shoulders were covered with golden hair, allowing him to recognize who it was at a glance.
"Nile. Long time no see."
The chimpanzee named Nile looked at the strong man and then at the dog. He made no sound or made any move. Silently maintaining the sitting position.
Inukai sat on his knees in front of Nero,
"I'm sorry, I promised to take you out, but I can't."
"Yeah, I can't do anything like breaking the cage. I'm too arrogant."
"You believe me? But I don't even believe in myself now"
< br>Looking at Inukai talking to Nile, Shiraishi Hong controlled the parasite to activate [Listen] with all his strength, but he really couldn't hear the chimpanzee talking.
In other words, all this is just a dog's illusion.
Shiraishi Hang has seen this kind of mental patient too many times, but most of them didn't give him any surprises. He just didn't know if raising a dog would make any difference.
"What is needed to break the cage is strength."
"And the wilderness will not be stingy in giving everyone who believes in her life the power to control freedom."
"If you are really like this If you want, you can return to the embrace of the wilderness at any time."
"Wildness Dominance, this is the name of our organization."
The strong man spread his palms flat, lying between them. A pill.
Thanks to "Blue Chopper" for the reward
